Podcast appearances and mentions of Nigel Farage

Jack Horgan-Jones and Pat Leahy join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics: · It seems highly likely that former Dublin football manager Jim Gavin has the blessing of Taoiseach Micheál Martin to seek a nomination to contest the presidential election for Fianna Fáil. Cork MEP Billy Kelleher is also seeking support for a nomination through parliamentary party colleagues. Kelleher is a seasoned and formidable vote-getter, but how would Gavin perform should be find himself on the campaign trail? · Catherine Connolly is already well and truly on the campaign trail, with fundraising and volunteer recruitment ramping up. Connolly is very much the anti-establishment candidate, but will she be able to build a vote beyond that? · And Sinn Féin are the missing piece in this presidential race jigsaw – will they put forward their own candidate in the form of Mary Lou McDonald or Pearse Doherty? Or will they decide to throw their weight behind Catherine Connolly instead? Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Governor of California Gavin Newsom is trolling Donald Trump, Lara Marlowe is reporting from Ukraine, and what would Reform leader Nigel Farage do to the Good Friday Agreement?

As James Heale writes online for the Spectator today, 'two issues continue to plague the government': how best to attack Nigel Farage. and how to frame an incrementalist approach to policy 'when the national mood favours radical change'. Nick Thomas-Symonds, the Cabinet Office minister responsible for UK-EU relations, attempted to tackle both today as he came to the Spectator to set out Labour's Europe strategy.Labour are pursuing 'pragmatic alignment' – what they argue is greater co-operation when beneficial to the British interest. But what does this mean? James joins Michael Simmons on the podcast to unpack the speech.

In a major speech this week, Reform UK set out how it would lower immigration. With controversial plans to deport hundreds of thousands of migrants and scrap key human rights protections, Nigel Farage described immigration as a ‘scourge' and an ‘invasion'. Was this a watershed moment in the way politicians talk about small boat crossings? And what is Labour's response?

UK correspondent Matt Dathan look at Nigel Farage's Reform party's plans for mass deportations - 600,000 illegal migrants over five years if Reform wins the next general election, which polls suggest could happen. Energy prices are back up again in the UK - wind farms are being blamed. And less than a week of summer left - and it's been the hottest one on record.

UK correspondent Lucy Thomson spoke to Lisa Owen about Nigel Farage's Reform party's plans to deport 600,000 migrants, as well as two men who were jailed for selling petfood to unsuspecting shoppers.

Nigel Farage's deportation plans, jobless benefit claimants surges under Labour and the wedding of the century - Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce announce their engagement!

Today, Reform UK has set out a five-year plan to detain and deport all migrants who arrive in the UK without permission and suggested 600,000 people could be sent back over five years.Under the plan, named Operation Restoring Justice, Reform UK would bar anyone who comes to the UK on small boats from claiming asylum, and strike deals with countries to return those people. The proposals could face legal challenges and political opposition, with Labour branding it unworkable and the Conservatives accusing Reform UK of recycling their ideas.Adam is joined by Tom Symonds, BBC News correspondent and Dr Alice Donald, Associate Professor of Human Rights Law, Middlesex University.

The unveiling of ‘Operation Restoring Justice' was accompanied by some impressive production value, including a Heathrow-style departure board and an enormous union flag.The headlines of Farage's mass deportation initiative are as follows: Reform will leave the ECHR and disapply the Refugee Convention for five years if elected in 2029; a new British Bill of Rights will be introduced, with all government departments required to make the migration crisis their number one ministerial priority; and all this at a cost of £2 billion.

Nigel Farage has outlined plans to detain and deport every single migrant who arrives in the UK on a small boat, including women and children. The plans are dismissed by Labour, the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats. Also: the trial begins of an asylum seeker who's accused of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl in Epping. And the Met Office says this summer will "almost certainly" be the UK's warmest on record.

Farage #ReformUK #UKPolitics #Deportation #Starmer #ECHR #RaiseTheFlag #JonGaunt Has Nigel Farage just won the election with his DEPORTATION PLAN?  Britain is boiling over. With over 700,000 illegal migrants in the UK, taxpayer-funded migrant hotels sparking furious protests, and the Raise The Flag campaign sweeping the country—Nigel Farage has just dropped a political bombshell.  His plan? Scrap the Human Rights Act, pull us out of the ECHR, and deport tens of thousands of illegals immediately.  Meanwhile, Keir Starmer has repeatedly vowed to keep Britain in the ECHR—even as public anger explodes.  Is this the moment Farage takes the crown? Is Starmer already toast? We're live—no spin, no filter. #Farage #ReformUK #UKPolitics #Immigration #IllegalMigration #MigrantHotels #ECHR #HumanRightsAct #RaiseTheFlag #PoliticalCrisis #Starmer #JonGaunt #Live #UKGovernment #BritishElections #PublicBacklash #ProtestsUK #PolicyChange #Westminster #UKNews #Flags #BritainFirst  Farage, ReformUK, UKPolitics, Immigration, IllegalMigration, MigrantHotels, ECHR, HumanRightsAct, RaiseTheFlag, PoliticalCrisis, Starmer, JonGaunt, Live, UKGovernment, BritishElections, PublicBacklash, ProtestsUK, PolicyChange, Westminster, UKNews, Flags, BritainFirst  This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt  

Reform UK has unveiled its proposal to tackle the small boat crisis - from mass deportations, to detention camps on disused airfields, to replacing the ECHR.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has unveiled a radical mass deportation plan, pledging to remove up to 600,000 migrants in his first term if he wins the next general election. Speaking at an Oxfordshire aircraft hangar, Farage called illegal migration a “national emergency” and has promised to take Britain out of the European Convention on Human Rights, repeal the Human Rights Act, and suspend the Refugee Convention for five years as the number of channel crossings rise. Camilla was at the event to hear the announcement and speaks to Deputy Leader Richard Tice and Kent County Council Leader Linden Kemkaran about the party's hardline immigration plans and why Farage has warned of a “genuine threat to public order” if politicians fail to act.Producer: Lilian Fawcett and Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersSocial Producer: Ji-Min LeeStudio Director: Meghan SearleExecutive Producer: Charlotte Seligman Hosted on Acast.

Nigel Farage has pledged to deport six hundred thousand people from Britain within five years if Reform becomes the party of government. Plus: Israel has devastated Gaza's Nasser Hospital with a double airstrike, killing dozens of civilians. With Aaron Bastani and Kieran Andrieu.

Nigel Farage has put mass deportations at the centre of his new immigration plan — promising to detain and remove hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers from the UK.While Reform UK currently has only four MPs, polling suggests they could win the next election and be in a position to implement this.It's a striking escalation in the rhetoric around immigration — raising the question of whether this marks a turning point in British politics.Has anything like this been attempted before, is it even possible, and how does it fit into the long, often heated history of immigration policy in the UK?On this episode of The Fourcast, Cathy Newman is joined by Jacqueline McKenzie, a partner at the human rights law firm Leigh Day who specialises in immigration and asylum cases, and journalist and author David Goodhart who is the head of demography, immigration and integration at the Policy Exchange think tank.

In the UK, Reform leader Nigel Farage says his party would deport 600,000 migrants over five years, if it comes to power at the next election. UK correspondent John Bevir spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Journalists are among 20 killed in a strike on Gaza hospital, the government plans for 100,000 new homes, and Nigel Farage announces plans for mass deportations.

Do you want Nigel Farage's mass deportations?

There's been international condemnation as five Palestinian journalists were among those killed in a double Israeli air strike on a Gaza hospital. Israel has called it a "tragic mishap". A friend of one of the victims tells us about the choices facing colleagues left behind.Also on the programme:As Reform UK leader Nigel Farage prepares to unveil his plan for mass deportations of asylum seekers - we ask what political and legal challenges it might face.And we speak to the conductor of today's CBeebies Prom - where an "informal environment" was encouraged.

He's a liar, a failure, and he's finished. He's ignored illegal immigration, packed hotels with migrants, failed to smash the gangs, and put freeloaders and foreigners before Brits. The economy is collapsing, small businesses are dying, we're staring down the barrel of an IMF bailout, he's up to his neck in allegations over the Lucy Connolly case, pushing restrictions on free speech, his MPs are turning on him – and now he's attacking Nigel Farage in a political suicide mission.  I expose why Starmer's time is up. #Starmer #BritainBroken #LucyConnolly #IllegalImmigration #MigrantHotels #UKPolitics #KeirStarmer #NigelFarage #EconomyCrisis #CostOfLiving #SmallBusinesses #PubsClosing #FreeSpeech #LucyConnolly #LabourParty #PoliticalCrisis #UKNews #StarmerFinished #StarmerExposed #UKEconomy #UKImmigration #BritishPolitics #StarmerLies #StarmerFailure #LabourRevolt #UKGovernment #BorderCrisis #ChannelCrossings #MigrantCrisis #UKLabour #StarmerVsFarage #StarmerUnderPressure #UKTaxCrisis #BritainInDecline #StarmerOut #EndOfStarmer #UKCostOfLiving #IMFBailout #BrokenBritain #StarmerDisaster #UKLeadershipCrisis #StarmerCollapse #StarmerAttacksFarage #UKCollapse #LucyConnollyCase #FreeSpeechUK #StarmerCensorship  Starmer, BritainBroken, IMF, IllegalImmigration, MigrantHotels, UKPolitics, KeirStarmer, NigelFarage, EconomyCrisis, CostOfLiving, SmallBusinesses, PubsClosing, FreeSpeech, LucyConnolly, LabourParty, PoliticalCrisis, UKNews, StarmerFinished, StarmerExposed, UKEconomy, UKImmigration, BritishPolitics, StarmerLies, StarmerFailure, LabourRevolt, UKGovernment, BorderCrisis, ChannelCrossings, MigrantCrisis, UKLabour, StarmerVsFarage, StarmerUnderPressure, UKTaxCrisis, BritainInDecline, StarmerOut, EndOfStarmer, UKCostOfLiving, IMFBailout, BrokenBritain, StarmerDisaster, UKLeadershipCrisis, StarmerCollapse, StarmerAttacksFarage, UKCollapse, LucyConnollyCase, FreeSpeechUK, StarmerCensorship  This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt

A wave of protests outside hotels housing asylum seekers has spread across the UK. Nigel Farage says Reform UK would seek returns deals with countries like Afghanistan and Eritrea, as part of plans for "mass deportations" of migrants. And dozens more deaths are reported in Gaza -- including a family whose tent was hit by an Israeli attack on a camp for displaced people.

The High Court has ruled against housing asylum seekers at The Bell Hotel in Epping, granting a temporary injunction that could reshape the UK's asylum policy. Local councils, including Broxbourne, are now considering similar legal action, raising the question: where will migrants go if more hotels are closed?In this episode of The Daily T, Camilla and Tim discuss the political fallout of the Epping ruling, the future of migrant hotels across Britain, and how the Labour government will respond. Will ministers attempt to overturn the decision, or risk a wave of councils following suit? With a record 50,000 migrants crossing the Channel since Labour took office and Reform's Nigel Farage hailing it “a great victory”, the pressure is mounting on the government.And we talk about the rise of the “Pink Ladies” - the local mothers leading peaceful protests outside asylum hotels - and the growing grass roots movement they represent. Lindsey Thompson, an Epping resident and one of the original protestors, joins us to explain why she took to the streets and why the campaign is gaining national attention.Producer: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganExecutive Producer: Charlotte SeligmanPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Director: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.

The big news today is of course the bilateral between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska. We should know by around 8 p.m. whether they have successfully negotiated an end to the war in Ukraine – and at what cost – but in the meantime Westminster is abuzz with the news that Nigel Farage is going for the Lords.This morning the Times splashes on a letter from Nigel Farage to the Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, in which he demands that Starmer allow him to nominate Reform peers to the House of Lords. It is not a totally unreasonable request either, with the Greens and the DUP represented in the chamber and Farage has gone after Starmer for ‘democratic disparity'. Former Reform spinner Gawain Towler joins James Heale and Lucy Dunn on the podcast to discuss the likelihood that we will see teal in the Lords soon. And who would they nominate? Would Gawain accept a peerage?Produced by Oscar EdmondsonBecome a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Maga arrived in Chipping Norton this week, heralding an intense round of British diplomacy ahead of the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska on Friday. Ukraine is top of the agenda and both Prime Minister Keir Starmer and foreign secretary David Lammy have been doing their bit liaising between US vice-president JD Vance and President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and several European leaders. In this week's episode, host George Parker is joined by Europe editor Ben Hall and Whitehall editor David Sheppard to discuss how the UK is playing its hand on the global stage and the role of soft power in its negotiations.

Dr. David Bull, the new chairman of Reform UK, is an unlikely politician. He made his name as a TV doctor and presenter, even hosting a live ghost hunt. But he played a key role in the transition of the Brexit Party to Reform and even says the name of the party was cooked up in his kitchen. He takes on the role from Zia Yusuf – who quit in dramatic fashion earlier this year – and after a period of splits and infighting.Tim visited Dr Bull at his home in Suffolk, where they spoke about his previous lives as a Tory candidate and as a Brexit MEP; his paranormal experiences; and his relationships with Rupert Lowe and Nigel Farage.

Suzi speaks to Tariq Ali about Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana's new party — provisionally called Your Party — which has surpassed Labour's membership with over 650,000 sign-ups. Your Party calls for public ownership, redistribution, and a politics rooted in communities, unions and social movements. Starmer's Labour government has nothing for the population, but billions for war and complicity in genocide. Supporters see a historic opening for the Left; critics warn it could split the vote and hand power to Nigel Farage's far-right Reform UK, which has overtaken the weakened Tories. We get Tariq Ali's assessment of Your Party's politics, prospects, and perils. Then Flor Melendrez of CLEAN Carwash, the country's first car wash worker center, talks to Suzi about the escalating ICE raids on carwasheros across Southern California. ICE uses racial profiling to conduct suspicion-less stops, warrantless home raids, and illegal workplace actions. A new class action lawsuit demands an immediate halt to these violations of the 4th and 5th Amendments of the Constitution. Flor tells us how ICE raids are hitting carwasheros in their workplaces, and how these workers are organizing to defend their jobs and families. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

The UK economy is slowing... but not as much as expected. So that's good - isn't it?--Thursday morning, data was released showing that UK gross domestic product (or GDP) has slowed to 0.3% growth in the second quarter of the year - not as much as predicted.Also, JD Vance has been holidaying in the UK, recently meeting with a who's who of right-wing populists - from Robert Jenrick, to Nigel Farage, to, somewhat bizarrely, enjoying a BBQ with ex-Apprentice contestant and social media star, Thomas Skinner.Anoosh Chakelian is joined by George Eaton and Will Dunn.Read: The Cotswolds plot against JD Vance - Finn McRedmond Hosted on Acast.

With Keir Starmer proving as unpopular and unpalatable to the left as he is to the right, Jeremy Corbyn's new - and as yet untitled - political party joins Reform UK in presenting a very real threat to Labour's chances of re-election in 2029.In this episode of The Daily T, Tim Stanley and Gordon Rayner talk to Ash Sarkar - journalist, Corbyn-supporter and co-founder of left-wing media organisation Novara Media - about how that new party could form a potentially fatal electoral pact for Starmer by teaming up with the Greens in 2029.As well as her dissatisfaction at Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves, she also talks about how Reform have outflanked Labour on the left with talk of nationalising utility providers like Thames Water, and why she “previously underestimated Nigel Farage” but is now “taking him a lot more seriously”.We want to hear from you!

JD Vance has been in the Cotswolds this week on his Britain fantasy tour. This has been billed as a ‘holiday' but he did take the time out of his busy schedule to meet with some of Britain's right-wing politicians. Robert Jenrick, Chris Philp and Nigel Farage were all granted an audience with the vice-president, and even Danny Kruger and pillow salesman/Apprentice star Thomas Skinner got the call-up. The notable exclusion is, of course, Kemi Badenoch, who despite claiming to be firm friends with Vance was NFI'd. CCHQ claim this is due to scheduling, but clearly it's an embarrassing snub. So who is MAGA's favourite UK politician?

JD Vance's holiday to the cotswolds continues, where he's been meeting with Tories, breakfasting with Nigel Farage, and having a barbecue with a former Apprentice candidate who says 'Bosh' a lot.

Another day, another Reform party press conference. Following political editor Tim Shipman's cover piece on how Reform hopes to win over women, this morning's event was led by the party's top female politicians: MP Sarah Pochin, Greater Lincolnshire Mayor Dame Andrea Jenkyns, Westminster councillor Laila Cunningham, and Linden Kemkaran, the leader of Kent County Council.

Nick Cohen talks to former Conservative MP and minister Dr Phillip Lee about the Brexit Omertà that is killing the Conservative Party. Dr Lee, now a practising GP, blames the party's spectacular demise partly on its failure to call out Nigel Garage and the Reform Party for the failure of Brexit and the dire consequences. The elephant in the roomPhillip Lee that although few people want to talk about Brexit, they are prepared to talk about the many problems either caused or exacerbated by Brexit. He says, "Look at the boats thing... when we were members of the European Union and Dublin protocols, we could turn these people around to where they'd first entered the European Union. Okay. That was what we were able to do. Now that we're outside the European Union, we can't turn these boats around once they're on the beach."He adds, "Now, how many people in this country actually realise that Brexit has made, dealing with the boats coming across the channel harder? I suspect very, very few people understand that factual point. So why isn't the Labour government saying that? Because they don't want to open up the discussion of. European Union membership being positive."Government by focus group is wrong Phillip Lee asserts that UK political parties mistakenly and all to frequently delegate their political judgment to poorly informed focus groups, saying "we rely upon focus groups from people who are often ill-informed...It is just a fact. They don't understand the complexity of trading in negotiations. They don't understand the complexity of just-in-time manufacturing, they don't understand the challenges of geopolitics or whatever. The reason in great part is not because they can't, it's because they've gotta get the kids to school. They've gotta put food on the table. They've got busy, busy lives. They're being stretched, left, right, and centre to care for elderly and everything else..." He warns, That just takes us down the path, which we are now too far down almost, of having a country that's not fit for purpose and not sustainable, not tenable. In fact, in the medium term, we have to be, we've gotta turn that around. We've gotta start to get to a situation where our democracy people are more informed."Public is being manipulated all over again on Brexit Phillip Lee argues that Nigel Farage counters the obvious failure of Brexit with the absurd claim that it just hadn't been "done right". He adds," Farage is cleverly tapping into the fact that nothing's changed. In fact, everything's got worse. But instead of people concluding it's got worse because of Brexit, he twists it as...t's not the Brexit that people voted for."Well, the Brexit that people voted for was never going to happen again. People were lied to and manipulated, and I think until a political party that's got a chance of forming a government in this country is honest with people about this straightforward, informs them of the reality." Failure to be honest with the public could lead to Reform in power Phillip Lee says failure to treat the public as adults could lead to the disaster of Farage in Number 10, saying "It's just going in the path of Reform, isn't it? ... we're going to have our Trump moment and most of us are gonna have heads in our hands about it."Read all about it!Nick Cohen's @NickCohen4 latest Substack column Writing from London on politics and culture from the UK and beyond.

Does – or did – Nigel Farage have a woman problem? ‘Around me there's always been a perception of a laddish culture,' he tells political editor Tim Shipman, for the cover piece of the Spectator this week. In last year's election, 58 per cent of Reform voters were men. But, Shipman argues, ‘that has begun to change'. According to More in Common, Reform has gained 14% among women, while Labour has lost 12%. ‘Women are ‘more likely than men… to worry that the country is broken.'Many of Reform's most recent victories have been by women: Andrea Jenkyns in the mayoral elections, Sarah Pochin to Parliament; plus, their most recent high profile defections include a former Tory Welsh Assembly member and a former Labour London councillor. What makes Reform's success with women all the more remarkable is that it appears organic; ‘we haven't forced this' says Farage. So why are women turning to Reform UK? Tim Shipman and Sarah Pochin MP join William Moore and Lara Prendergast, the Spectator's features and executive editors respectively, to discuss further, with an introduction from Oscar Edmondson.

First: Nigel Farage is winning over womenDoes – or did – Nigel Farage have a woman problem? ‘Around me there's always been a perception of a laddish culture,' he tells political editor Tim Shipman. In last year's election, 58 per cent of Reform voters were men. But, Shipman argues, ‘that has begun to change'. According to More in Common, Reform has gained 14% among women, while Labour has lost 12%. ‘Women are ‘more likely than men… to worry that the country is broken.'Many of Reform's most recent victories have been by women: Andrea Jenkyns in the mayoral elections, Sarah Pochin to Parliament; plus, there most recent high profile defections include a former Tory Welsh Assembly member and a former Labour London councillor. What makes Reform's success with women all the more remarkable is that it appears organic; ‘we haven't forced this' says Farage.So why are women turning to Reform UK? Tim Shipman and Sarah Pochin MP join the podcast to discuss. Next: is Italy experiencing a renaissance? From Italy, Owen Matthews argues that Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has revived her nation. While he says that Italy has been ‘suffering from the same economic malaise' as the rest of Europe, the macroeconomics covers up the true affordability of the country. Espressos cost €1.20, pizzas are no more than €10, and rents in even the swankiest areas are ‘laughably' cheap compared to Britain. Plus, Owen sees none of the ‘media catastrophisation' over issues like immigration, social cohesion and militant Islam that appears to grip the UK. So how has Meloni done it? To discuss, Owen joined the podcast alongside Antonello Guerrera, UK & Westminster correspondent for the Italian newspaper Repubblica.And finally: one in three British adults cannot swimThis week, Iram Ramzan provides her ‘notes on' learning to swim saying, ‘it's humiliating to admit that at 37' she can't. She's not alone though – one third of British adults cannot swim, and the proportion appears to be rising. Iram highlights the disparities between different communities; 76 percent of South Asian women for example cannot swim 25 metres. Iram joined the podcast to discuss further, alongside fitness professional and entrepreneur Elle Linton who also learnt to swim in her thirties.Plus: what small error led Rachel Johnson to get a telling off from Noel Gallagher? And Max Jeffery reports from court, where the Spectator and Douglas Murray have won a defamation claim brought against them by Mohammed Hijab. Hosted by William Moore and Lara Prendergast.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

Nigel Farage claims Britain is on the edge of ‘societal collapse' with crime so bad that people are scared to leave their own house. But is there any truth behind his claims or is it just another alarmist soundbite? Today in The Bunker, Jacob Jarvis talks to Zoë Grünewald, Westminster editor at The Lead, about whether Farage's rhetoric matches reality and if it will swing votes in the next election. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

Nigel Farage hosted a press conference today as part of Reform's summer crime campaign 'Britain is lawless'. He unveiled the latest Tory defector: Leicestershire's Police & Crime Commissioner Rupert Matthews. Amidst all the noise of whether crime in the UK is falling or not, plus the impact of migration on crime, is Reform's messaging cutting through? Would US Vice President agree with Farage's message that Britain is lawless? Vance is in the UK, staying in the Cotswolds, as part of his summer holiday. Tim Shipman and Lucy Dunn are joined by James Orr, associate professor at Cambridge University, and a friend of Vance's to talk us through the dynamics between Trump, Vance, Starmer, Lammy and Farage. Does Farage have Vance's ear? Plus: James explains the rationale behind the new Reform-linked think tank that he is leading, saying that the Centre for a Better Britain is about seeking to build a 'politics of national preference'.
